Saudi Ministry clamps down on bogus degrees

  • Saudi Arabia: Sunday, August 09 - 2009 at 10:02

Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Education has said that employees who gain degrees via distance learning courses cannot use the academic titles they gain from the qualification before the ministries of Civil Service and Higher Education officially accredit them. The ministry has asked staff to give details of distance learning qualifications for certification. Academics in the country have recently warned against bogus degrees gained from distance learning, and the Shoura Council may draw up a university blacklist to help people planning further studies from avoid spending money on bogus qualifications.
